Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Adem je turecká, bosnianska a albánska podoba mena Adam, ktorého základom je hebrejské ’ādām „človek, ľudstvo“. Biblický príbeh spája toto pomenovanie so slovom ’ădāmā „zem, pôda“. Ide o biblickú slovnú súvislosť; výklad „zrodený zo zeme“ nemožno vydávať za jednoznačne preukázaný pôvodný význam.
